We benefited from succession planning training materials developed
by the NYS Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance.
We also benefited from being able to refer to guides produced
by other states, such as the State of Washington
and the State of Minnesota and federal agencies,
such as the Department of Transportation, the
Department of Health and Human Services, and
the Office of Personnel Management. "Building
Successful Organizations: A Guide to Strategic Workforce Planning,"
published by the National Academy of Public Administration,
was also helpful.
We are also grateful to New York State agency human resources
managers and program managers who commented on a draft of the
guide and provided examples.
